  1. Thanks, I was wondering if it was someone from here since you asked about the windshield lol. Thanks!
  2. No the oil does not have to be drained out of the trans for inspecting the clutch, it should have a little access cover to look in there, probably the throwout/pilot bearing is what you hear rattling around in there when you start the truck up.
  3. Thanks, ya I would have run my stock gray wheels but they were already mounted with summer tires and I bought the chrome ones off craigslist then had tires put on them so it just worked out that way. Also the Chrome on one of the wheels is starting to peel bad and the others have some defects where my gray ones are perfect. I also may consider having the chrome ones re-chromed or powder coated? Maybe this spring I will have my summer tires mounted to the chromes and just keep driving on them and have my winter tires put on the gray rims. The front mudflaps are just plastic cheapo ones that I put on just for winter and the rears are molded chevy ones. They look pretty good and keep lots of dirt and snow off the truck.
  4. Ya I live off of hillside and o'malley so I'm going up and down it a lot, if you where driving the ss i would of seen you to lol. I got the tires from Alaska Tire Service, the tires are studded Hankook iPike RW11 275/55/20 and they work awesome so far haven't even had the anti-lock even come on or spin out when accelerating from a stop. I'm not sure exactly what they cost since I got them at a discounted price since I know the owner. Anyway great place to go in my opinion!
  5. Since it started snowing the roads got really slick so I decided to switch to my new winter wheels and studded tires. I got some 20" Stock Chrome Wheels for my new winter tires. They look really sharp out side in the snow I'll get some pics of that tomorrow being that its dark out. I also added some mudflaps to keep the dirt off. Let me know what you guys think.
  6. Looks great to me! When I first read the first post I was like wow, uhhh, then I scrolled down! LOL!
  7. Congratulations on the new truck and welcome! Maybe try to use photobucket for the pictures, that's what I did when I first joined.
  8. Looks good, I used some of that stuff to restore the dash pad on my C-10 and it came out like new. I always wondered what it would look like on carpet, since the back of the can mentions it I think.
  9. If its the water pump going out I wouldn't recommend using stop leak as I have had some bad experiences with it. The water pump is really easy to change on these trucks. Also check your hoses going to the water pump as mine had a lose heater hose causing a leak. Good luck!
  10. Hahahahaha, that is hilarious! I've got to see that video too...
  11. Haha, I saw that on ebay last night too! My jaw dropped when I saw the pics of it.
  12. I really like the new Camaro's, a black SS Camaro whipped by me the other day and I also checked one out at the dealership. They are definitely pretty amazing looking cars!
  13. Good deal! No ideas on the trans but I would definitely trade the bed for a stock one though....
  14. That looks sweet, but I don't care for the rims to much...
  15. Haha, but I've got to wonder how some of those happened.
  16. I'm not 100% sure because I've never had a problem with my dash lights but I would try removing the gauge cluster and checking the connection to it, if that doesn't fix it the light bulbs may have burned out in the cluster, I have never replaced them but I assume they are replaceable by taking apart the gauges and replacing the bulbs. Good luck, maybe someone else can add more to this...
